I'm sensing that Roman's Flask project was born out of frustration with people not getting his Werkzeug and Jinja2 projects - probably because of bad marketing. On 1 April he created a silly little microframework and did all the right marke

All in all - really happy someone is going after this market. Restauranteurs have no idea where to look for a website. They just ask for the coolest possible website without wanting to pay too much so they end up with all the bells and whis

I've been using Notational Velocity which is an OSX only app. I like that it's UI is keyboard driven and that it encrypts and syncs your notes to the cloud.

It actually uses httplib1 under the hood which I've had weird problems with (even when using the httplib2 abstraction). Restkit has a better interface and really cool filters for such things as proxies.

Check out restkit ( http://github.com/benoitc/restkit ) - much better then urllib/2 or httplib/2

"practice" or "experience" are the terms missing from this discussion! An experienced person can iterate less and has a better design right off the bat.

It's hard when family members ask you to do work for them and you don't have time, they still offer to pay you. They expect that you'll somehow find the time because there's now a financial incentive at play. My mom is starting a company an

That's a good point about the Django honeymoon period before you hit all those little things like a proper multi environment settings.py schema. Once you're over those and start reading the Django code it becomes even more productive.

So hard to still like Jim Carrey. He was great in "I love you Phil Morris".

That looks promising. Is anyone familiar with a self hosted solution like this? Also: What is the tracking pixel gif for if it's using websockets?

You should think about location. I'd like to search per country or even city. Are there any standards for geotagging in email? Doubt it.

I think it's cool. I am part of two cliques and I maintain forums for both but would love a more fully fleshed social environment. Go ahead! EDIT: Make sure you think about group leaders - administrators/maintainers/whatever.

He almost made me want to buy a Thinkpad. Why can't Apple do 15,4" with 1920x resolution? My dream laptop would be MBP unibody keyboard/frame, Intel 256GB SSD, 1920x1200, extra battery instead of SuperDrive.

Armin has stated that he thinks that declaring URL routes with decorators is a bad idea. Has he warmed up to it or decided it bearable being a minimal framework? I think they are a bad idea. I love urls.py being kind of a TOC for your appli

How bad is the recession in the US? Here in Iceland it certainly doesn't feel like what the media seemed to be hoping for (Armageddon).

Quoting Steve Wozniak's description of Jobs' job back when he worked for Atari: "... Steve would examine their design and make changes, like adding sounds, etc. It's like modifying a program to do different things, just barely a step under

Dude, I'm not complaining or saying it's a bad platform. Just that if you're going to develop on it you're going to be guided by Apple's choices and platform. As opposed to being able to hack something that in the end runs on the iPhone. Th

No. Repeating myself now, a fanboy or just willing to work within Apple's tools and nothing else.
